A Potential Hiatus?

So, I can't log into my blog from my laptop anymore. I'm not sure why, but whatever the reason it means posts are probably going to be few and far between atm.
Although seeming as  I have a giant evil piece evil for C++ coursework due in next week, I'll probably be living in the Labs so you never know.Maybe I'll be here the whole time.
C++ is apparently Java's nonsensical irritating little brother. I can't even get it to say 'hello word'.
(A good workman always blames his tools.)
Still, the weather's good (really windy these last few days), my cat has really really really cute kittens (which I'll hopefully get to see in person soon!) and alot of other dandy stuff.

And Dr.who has once again made me question myself on issues such as 'How would I really react if I met a gooey slightly alien me, who was still me? Or 'What would I do if I was a gooey slightly alien me, and I met the original me?'.
I guess it would have to happern for you to know, but after I got over the shock and stuff I know there are a few things I'd like to take the oppertunity to say. The only thing is I'm not sure I would be able to trust that this was an exact replica of me, and not an exact evil replica of me. Nothing ever has exact replica's of you in it without them trying to kill you.
However, being as I would simultaniously be the replica of me, it would be up to me as a replica to convince the original me of me being good.



**The C++ cavelry has arrived, so I'll be editing this up later. :) **
 Breaking news!!!
I have offically got C++ to say hello world. All hope is not lost.

Crumbs and spoiler tags.

Heyo! Another 'I'm supposed to be revising' post, but you'll be happy to hear that it will all be over on Friday, and I can go back to not bothering you with such regular updates.
From now on I'm putting spoilers in black highlights, like this. you can see them by highlighting the text with your mouse. For example, the award for best use of the line "there's no such thing as ghosts." goes to Red Vs Blue (reconstruction). That show gets epic. And hillarious. I am up to the penultimate episode in the series. XD the next one's Gonna be soo good! *

It's another day of sitting a computer today. I miss the ladys who used to come and hoover on Wednesdays, my room really needs de-crumbing, and I don't have a hoover or  know where to acquire one. I wonder what happened to them. Maybe there was a massive cleaning emergancy and everyone got called to the front line of crumb defence somewhere on the outskirts of LoBro. I hope they make it back ok. Till then I will try to fight of the rising flood of crumbs the best I can.
I watched 'The hungry Earth' last night. I don't know if it was knowing what's going to happen next week, or the fact that this has a proper "running around in the dark, outside with an Alien trying to kill me. In the dark." scene in it. I think stuff feels scarier in the dark. The whole provocation thing kept reminding me of Aizen from the last episode I watched of Bleach. That guy was so OP it wasn't even funny. Seriously.
Finally, (if you ever read this) I would like to thank Mr. Tarrant for introducing me to Die Arzte. German = Awesome.

*Click emoticon to see the guy who made it and stuff.

Woo. Happy new february.

So what up guys? Me? Yeah I kinda blew it on my Geometry (seriously how many times do I keep trying to write geology? Maybe I'm on the wrong course.) paper. Sorry. I was going to try and carry the revision mood over and do y'all a nice little sketch of preparing to revise if I felt like I did well, but I didn't so you don't get one. If I go down, I'm taking everyone else down with me.
I felt a bit bummed (Can I say that? They say it in those goofy awesome movies. Please don't hate me!) but a bottle of coke, ATFW and both the 'family of blood' dr who episodes later and I'm feeling much better now. Thanks for asking. If you think I'm really into Dr Who atm, your probably right, but I have good reason! It's one of the only good things on iPlayer, and I also acquired 2 DVDs over Christmas. Having loads of something really gets you into it. The Tom Baker one was pretty funny. An Evil wooden puppet from the future with the soul of pig (yeah, the soul of a pig) who hates humanity and wants to kill every one, was a pretty good idea for a villian. And those invisible laser guns were pretty efficiant. People started falling over before you even press the trigger sometimes. I also loved the way they managed to end it on such a happy note. You never really get that in Dr who. Someone's always sad to see him go, unless everyone's dead.
In this one they all went and got muffins. I'm not even sure anyone realised he was a timelord.
Anyway. I've done a David and gone on for ages about something I wasn't even going to talk about. Sorry if I'm using too many words. They sometimes put me off stuff, so I don't really like inflicting loads on other people.
Which brings me on to what I was actually going to say. I don't think it really matters what any of you think about this blog. I had a conversation, which spawned a thought about what a blog is for. I don't know why people blog, and I don't know why people read blogs. If I were you I wouldn't read this. It's not interesting to people who aren't me. Its just a load of stuff about what's in my kitchen, and currently Dr Who. Its not even funny, but that's ok because tbh I'm pretty sure this isn't written for you. Unless you're my antimatter dopple ganger (if so, please don't come near me. I don't want to have to try and kill you) or you're somehow me.
Even then, I'm not sure you would enjoy reading this. You have you're own life to live, and you should live it to the full.I know its hard, trying to be yourself when there's two of you, but we can do this.
Anyway, as far as I'm aware nigh on nobody reads this, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Its not really a good thing either, as it just means I'm wasting my time and nobody votes on the polls. (I like knowing how y'all think...) I like talking to text boxes.
So to cut a really long story long, I think its time to change the point of this blog. Many posts ago I think I said something about wanting to talk about all that crazy stuff that goes through my head. I don't think that's the case anymore. From now on the point of this blog is to write down what I want to write down in this text box. Prehaps we'll talk about some crazy stuff, maybe you'll gain a little more insight into the mind of me, (Seriously if you're trying now, give up now. I have a spider diagram and I still don't get where I'm coming from) or maybe I'll just whine about exams. You can waste your life reading about my life if you want.
Hey. If you're happy, I'm a little bit happier. Because I like it when people are happy.
I'm also pro 'starting sentances with the word because'.
Oooh, Oooh! Also, I was looking up this song which I had stuck in my head (The record Rattigan plays when he leaves Basil in the Death trap) when youtube told me that this was related [Obvious link]. You may not think this is cool, but I think these guys are very cool. It's so accurate!

[Sorry if this does not make you happy. I guess my happiness level is still a bit low, whereas I usually blog on +epic or +happy. Family of blood is one really awesome ep, but in some inexplicable way, it doesn't reach those levels of epic/happy. - next up, Blink Rvb season 2-3]

Doctor Le Qui?

I know what your (probably not) thinking. "Two posts in one day? How can this be?" but you're wrong. Its not two posts in one day, because I slept in between the two posts. That is how I say the universe works, and so that is how it works.
Ruths Guide to life 'Days': A day is defined as the period between the first time you wake up (after 00:00) untill the last time you go to sleep before waking up after the next 00:00.
Seeming as the last post was posted before I woke up (after 00:00) yesterday(/today), it still counts as yesterday. Thus I am not posting twice in one day. That would just be weird.
Back to the point. Todays topic, Doctor who is Awesome.
Yeah they may have changed it (Or so I've heard, I haven't really got around to watching my new Tom Baker Dr Who DVD quite yet.) but presumably its always good. (see prev brackets. The guy has a scarf and Jelly Babies though. How can that be not awesome? Yeah, as soon as I don't feel like I have impending deadlines I have to watch that now.) Its exiting, futuristic and at some points nicely predicatable but not always. (Oh gosh, theres Aliens here? Who'd a thunk it? ) I want to say it makes you feel happy, because I've just seen "Vampires in Venice", and next week its "Dream vs Reality". TBH I don't know why that makes me feel happy, especially the former. I mean most episodes seem to have a lot of 'Unless you are going to be a recuring character you only have a 20% survival chance' rule which I just made up.
Some episodes seem to be down right depressing.
(TV spacestations anyone? Seriously, how can anyone be happy after that ep.? Personally I find it worse than the second season finale on the downer front)
In fact, when I start to think about it, I don't even know why doctor who is that awesome. It is, but why? It generaly does the good ol' 'Hey lets have fun!- Oh no Aliens!-Oh no *insert name(s) here* died!- Hooray Dr Who won!' thing. Its not like you'd want to be in any of the episodes, because I wouldn't fancy my chances of making it 'till the end credits. Except the dream episode, that would have been Hilarious if I were in it. We'd turn up 5 years in the future and I would be a fashionable ninja hero-spy and the neighbourhood would be terrorised by velociraptors with a seemingly irrational (I should never have let Hammond near those things) hatred for right arms. Admittedly that probably wouldn't be the case, otherwise more classic dream stuff would happen in the episode, (Although this is talking from memory, as it is showing next friday) but its nice to think it would. Its not like its ever going to happen anyway.
So why do we like Dr qui? Its it the tension and suspense?  The epic lines? The epic music? (Le gosh, I did not realise how much that music gets me buzzing!) The trailers, the characters, the doctor himself? Is it the fact that I literally just finished watching it? Yeah, that's the most likely answer. I always hype about stuff I just finished, but still. Doctor who is cool.
Oooh Hey! Its tomorrow by your standards as well now! Now everyone can be happy.

So untill next time, do your work/stay in school/have fun/give peace a chance.
